Watching The CW

Last week’s episode of America’s Next Top Model was a recap. Since I still don’t have the CW on my TV, I had to hunt it down on surfthechannel, which I eventually did. Then, I watched it and took notes by hand, like the week before. But honestly, I don’t care about the recap eps. I actually stopped taking notes, probably about half way through, and didn’t even realize it until later. Like when I went to write this blog.

So here’s what I remember. They took us back to a place I had tried to hard to forget, the Model Institute of Technology. They reintroduced us to Alpha J and Beta J. I wish they hadn’t. That was all pretty stupid and now they’ve gone and reminded us just how stupid it was.

Um, let’s see. They also showed several little girly cat fights. But what can you expect when you put a bunch of immature chicks together in the same place for weeks. They also showed some of the girls getting really friendly, too, though and I guess that’s another thing that happens with girls.

We saw some more makeover messes, like Sheena losing a chunk of her hair during processing. She actually held it together better than I would have.

Hannah had Alaska Pixie Dust. It’s hard to explain, but apparently it was something her mommy made for her so she wouldn’t be lonely far from home. It looked like powdered sugar or something. I did wonder a bit when she was sprinkling some into envelopes that she was sending back home. Does no one worry about Anthrax anymore? Or don’t Alaskans have access to what was happening in the rest of the world over the past decade?

We also got to see McKey flip out cause they were trying to kill a bee. She made it a little home outside and gave it water. Sorry, but to me that’s just weird. If it’s between me and the bee, the bee has to go. Period.

We also got to see Elina upset when her “girlfriend” Clark was eliminated. Really? Her girlfriend? When did that happen?

Oh, one more part I remember was when they were all in the limo going somewhere, and Sheena and Elina have an argument over animal rights. Elina was so angry that they would eat meat and Sheena, who I thought kept her cool well, basically said to each his own. Then Elina, pushing the issue, said something about putting dead things in your mouth, and Sheena retorted, aren’t plants living things, don’t you have to kill them to eat them? Elina, that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. Then she walked away mad. Please. I hate it when people have special agendas and they want to force them on others. Be a vegan if you want. I like cheeseburgers. End of story.

But the best line of that whole issue was later, when Joslyn told the camera privately that Elina was so serious about it, but that teenagers always want to be taken seriously. See, this is why I love Joslyn.
